You`ll lead backend technical direction and collaborate closely with Team Lead, Software Engineers, Solution Architects, and QA to ensure our systems are secure, efficient, and resilient at scale.
What you`ll do:
Technical Leadership & Architecture
** Architect and Evolve Systems: Own the backend architecture vision across multiple services and domains. Design systems optimized for performance, observability, and scalability, ensuring they meet multi-market and multi-product requirements.
** Technical Direction: Guide the evolution of our microservice and monolithic components, ensuring maintainability, performance, and clear service boundaries.
** Problem Solving: Lead complex technical investigations, propose long-term solutions, and ensure alignment with architectural principles defined at the Tribe/Engineering level.
** Code Quality & Standards: Define backend coding standards and enforce best practices in Node.js (NestJS) and related backend frameworks. Promote reliability through code reviews, automation, and CI/CD pipelines.
Collaboration & Delivery
** Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Product Owners, QA, DevOps, and other teams to define interfaces, data flows, and integration strategies that ensure seamless delivery.
** Release Management: Support release activities by ensuring production readiness, performance validation, and rollback strategies are in place.
** System Governance: Represent backend engineering decisions and dependencies in cross-tribe and company-wide architecture discussions.
Mentorship & Knowledge Sharing
** Engineer Development: Mentor backend developers, fostering technical excellence, ownership, and growth across the team.
** Best Practices: Champion backend engineering best practices in API design, data modeling, observability, and scalability.
** Innovation: Encourage experimentation with new backend technologies, patterns, and cloud-native solutions that improve delivery and reliability.
Quality, Reliability & Automation
** Test Strategy Collaboration: Work closely with QA and DevOps to ensure strong test automation coverage across unit, integration, and load testing layers.
** Operational Excellence: Partner with SREs to ensure robust monitoring, alerting, and incident management processes are in place.
** Quality Mindset: Promote a "build it right" culture—prioritizing security, performance, and long-term maintainability over short-term fixes.
Core Technologies
** Node.js (NestJS) and TypeScript-based backend development
** RESTful APIs and microservices
** Message queues (Kafka)
** PostgreSQL, Redis, and other persistence layers
** CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and cloud platforms
What you`ll Bring:
** 5-8+ years of experience in backend software engineering, with strong expertise in Node.js (preferably NestJS) and related backend frameworks.
** Proven track record in system architecture and design, including both microservice and monolithic systems.
** Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, code quality enforcement, and automated testing (unit, integration, load).
** Experience leading technical investigations and solving complex scalability or performance issues.
** Strong understanding of API design, data modeling, and system observability (logs, metrics, monitoring).
** Previous involvement in multi-product or multi-market environments — ideally in fintech, e-commerce, or large-scale digital platforms.
** Knowledge of DevOps principles, cloud-native architectures (AWS, GCP, or Azure), and collaboration with QA and SRE teams.
** Experience in release management and ensuring production readiness.
** Background in mentoring developers, guiding best practices, and driving technical excellence within teams.
** Involvement in cross-functional collaboration — working closely with Product Owners, QA, DevOps, and other engineering teams.
